Just weird stuff I think about.
This isn’t really much of a post. We stayed in our favorite cabin up in the mountains during the Labor Day long weekend. Normally I would have taken that time to do some hiking. However, my health situation is still preventing me from doing that. So, we did the next best thing and did a little off-roading in the jeep. Thought I would share some of the Go Pro video I shot during the ride. Fair warning – if you…
Did you watch the series Breaking Bad? If not, stop reading. If you are reading this on your phone on the toilet, stop, er well, OK, finish up but then go straight to Netflix and binge all five seasons of it, then come back here. Myself and all the others who have already seen it will wait for you. Done? Cool. Wasn’t that THE BEST show you have ever seen? I rank it as my #1 TV drama series of…
Would it surprise you to find out I stabbed a person? It’s true. I did. I’m not proud of it but I can’t deny it happened. No, I didn’t impale him on a samurai sword after he brutally raped and sodomized another guy. My choice of weapon wasn’t quite as lethal, but it did pack a punch, or shoud I say puncture? Maybe I should give you a little context here. I was a sophomore in high school (that’s grade…
Remember back a couple of years ago when I started a petition to move Halloween to the last Saturday of October? Well, the people at the Halloween & Costume Association have stolen my idea and started a petition of their own! They only started their petition last year, so mine was first. That’s all the evidence I need. They stole it! To be fair, my petition did not gain much traction. I garnered a whole whopping four signatures. All of…
For this one you are going to have to think back to a certain time. A time when there were no cell phones with cameras on them. A time when there were no digital cameras at all, even the ones in which you inserted a 3.5″ floppy disk. Back to the time when you actually had to take the film from the camera to a photo shop to have it developed. You remember? Good. All the millennials will have to…
I’m back! Did you miss me? I’ve been MIA for a while but this time it wasn’t my fault. I swear! Back in March I suffered a detached retina in my right eye. This is not my first rodeo with that particular condition, as several years ago the same thing happened in my left eye. This time the tear in the retina wasn’t quite as bad as the last time so the doctor wanted to try an in office procedure…
I’ve hit a bit of a writer’s block here. I’ve got like eleventybillion (just an estimate) unfinished drafts that I can’t seem to complete. Usually when this happens I go to my fall back 642 things to write about series, but I can’t even get the ball rolling on one of those. My recent health issues have consumed a lot of my time and have also scrambled my brain somewhat. So I’ve decided to take the lazy way out. I’ve…
Getting a colonoscopy is easy. Prepping for one, not so much. I spent the day after Christmas doing what I call “studying” for it. The course of study went a little something like this. Wake up the day before the anal invasion and eat…nothing. No solid food whatsoever is allowed. You can drink clear liquids like water, soda, and Gatorade. No red or purple Gatorade though. Of course, red is my favorite and I had a ton of these in…
It’s been awhile since I told a story. This is not a story about a grand adventure, it’s just a small adventure. Last weekend my son and his girlfriend accompanied me on a planned hike. WAIT! Don’t close the window yet. This is not only a story about hiking again. I swear! Just hang with me a little longer. As I was saying, we drove out early Saturday morning for about an hour drive to a trail I’ve been wanting…
It’s been over a month since I posted something! I have been so busy lately that I haven’t even had random stupid shit popping into my head to write about. I still don’t have anything to write about. So lucky you, guess what you get? That’s right. Another hiking post, and this one isn’t even a real post. I’m just going to show you a video of me taking my youngest dog, Finn, out for his first hike. Riveting no? …
